We're in a land not far away It only takes a heart to stay Stay behind in solitude and wait At the gate, they're only there when you reach Frozen still in a place of my own Want to take in my friends to my home Never need to be near to the phone Because my friends are already home Home, that magical place we take for granted Every person, creature, and spirit, should have a loving home Rest assured that all will stay the same Just as inside the picture frame

How long will it take her eyes to realize (I'm looking right at her?) How long will it take my heart to realign (From under the covers?) I've never been good with taking initiative (I know how to follow) I've gotta change the way I know how to live (I'll ask her tomorrow) I know where to go, I'll take you on the weekends I don't think she's out there looking at someone else I just think that she's not interested in someone like myself I'll be fine, I'll ask her, I'll tell her I know where to go, I'll take you on the weekends

People Town 04:37
Don't take me to people town I don't wanna go to people town Find some berries, pick your own Take the sheep right back to home Count the berries on the hill Watch the river running still Kuplink, kuplank, kuplunk

Me Town 03:18
Let's all turn into a tiny trash bin And we can let everybody throw all their trash into the Benign tumors taking over our brain To make us laugh all day until we agree that we're Insatiable desire to find a groom For all the baby marsupials eating out of the womb Tomorrow we'll forget about our stifled laugh Turn into crocodile suffle HEY Look a giraffe Why did you eat those poisonous foods Because of your chatroom partner not sending you some of their Internet history, yours is a myth Take all your hardware and send it off your friendly neighborhood Clifford Brown and pizza, eat a bunch Your Catholic school picked up some lunchables and served them for lunch You're dressed in polka dots and moonshine and a scarf You look so cute when you are puking and you swallow your barf

Hello, Darling, where have you been? I have been waiting for a heart to be sent my way Is it me? Should I go back to yesterday? Do you agree? (no) Of course not, how could they? You've screwed up and let down all the ones you love now And after all this time that you've spent in town You look for love when you know where it's already found Should I really be here? Should I go home? Is there really a point here at all? I thought here I'd find a heart that wouldn't change But once they are finished they'll never be the same as Those ones at home who are just my kind of girl The kind I'll never find in this kind of world Maybe I'm just dwindling in the past And someone will come down and they will make this loneliness My last, and just my kind of girl Could find me at the right time in either kind of world

It's a lovely day, everything's fine The air all around smells like roses and wine The copies left on the printer are warm I'll deliver them back to the dorm I'm walking now, carrying a pile Of freshly printed paper underneath my smile My neighbor comes by, he stops to say hi I wave to him and I GOT A PAPERCUT I GOT A PAPERCUT NOOOOOOOOO (nothing will ever be the same) (unintelligible screaming) NOT A PAPERCUT

Henry the puffin waved to the waves that Crash and turn away to say "how are you" before they Grow in the ocean, set life in motion Henry don't you fret, you'll get to meet The waves at Penobscot Bay Oatmeal the Hedgehog those fields are not so far Your toes will grow, your nose will be torn Hide that stride to ease all that cried When that old Oatmeal died

When I tuck you in at night This will be your lullaby When you lie with tuckered eyes This will be the tune When I wake you up at dawn You'll let out a yawn Hands as soft as fine chiffon Wave away the moon If I tucked you in at night This will be your lullaby If I had a child to call my own I'd have a happy home They'd grow and grow and grow and grow 'Til they could raise their own When I tuck you in at night This will be the tune This is what I'd sing to them That's if I should have my own

If I serenade the sun would it be the only one? And if I testify to you would it stop you being true? With each passing conversation You exhibit more adulation to yourself And if I serenade the moon would you think it comes to you? I've spent this time searching for the humble But the more I search the more that value tumbles I've considered giving up, empty out this sweet tea cup Filling up a cracked mug with bitter sadness And if I serenade the sun would it be the only one

It's summertime, we're renting out a lakehouse Eating at the steakhouse, right by Bugaboo Creek We'll build a campfire, make memories so fond Biking to the arcade, right by Papu's Pond How many miles we'll drive the car No city lights to drown the stars Although it's great, the state's just not What makes me feel this way So thank you everyone Thank you to my family in Maine Thank you to all my friends in Maine On Halloween my mom would sew us costumes And we'd go trick or treating beneath the vibrant leaves In wintertime we'd always have a white Christmas Always have a nice Christmas playing in the snow Oh as the cold turned into spring We would get mud on everything Although it's great, the state's just not What makes me feel this way So thank you everyone Thank you to my family in Maine Thank you to all my friends in Maine Thank you to everyone in Maine Thank you to the great old state of Maine
